I want to have a database on my local hard-drive (say, made in MS Access) and connect to it with node.js (like you do with the MySql module).
Is there a way to do it?
Checkout this package:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-adodb
You will need to install MS Access Driver in your system (windows) to use it, but it applies to every other language too if you want to access MS Access db.

I am wondering what is the best, most efficient way to make this transition from an MS Access backend to a MySQL backend when it comes to multiple users accessing the database.
Currently, there are about 20 users that use this Access database in a shared folder. If I migrate the backend to MySQL and link the tables using ODBC, I have that I will need to install the MySQL ODBC driver on all of these users' devices.
This doesn't seem like that great of a solution, since if a user gets a new device, a new user needs access, etc., they will also have to install a MySQL ODBC driver to use the database.
Or, does it work that only 1 user needs the driver installed. Then, this user can link the frontend database to the backend. Now since the database is linked, other users can use it without requiring an MySQL ODBC driver?
I am aware that with this many users, the application should be migrated to a web solution, but that is not an option right now.
I shall need to integrate MySQL 5.7 with MS Access (2007 and above) in two ways, so I send data from MySQL to MS Access and accept data from MS Access. This is a recurring task, so I shall need to set an automated routine to do so. Any ready to use tools or procedures?
Install the ODBC driver for MySQL and link the tables you wish to "integrate".
If there is a better place to post this question then can someone please move it?
I have data that I pull from a database using an ODBC connection and then query it in MS Access on my PC running Windows 7. Now I need to push this queried data to a different database (a mariaDB database) which is located in a linux Debian 8.4 server which I connect to through mRemoteNG (a secure shell connection). I don't know how to do this last step. How can I configure mariaDB or Access (I'm not sure which one I need to configure) to send data from Access to mariaDB?
You should be able to add an ODBC-Connection in your windows computer using a mySql-driver and push data from access that way.

I don't have any idea about .Net framework and MS SQL Server Express database.
I've received a file titled project_db.bak and I have to convert it into project_db.sql in order to import the same database into MySQL.
I searched over the Internet for the solution. I found couple of answers but they are asking to use MS SQL server tools which I can not. I have to achieve this conversion in some other way.
Can someone please help me in this regard?
MS Sql Server typically generates binary backups, so what you have I guess is a backup. To restore it to a "querable" state you will need MS tools or RESTORE statment someway executed against the Motor (that you will need). Once it was "restored" (that is the reverse to a MS backup) you can dump (in MySql terms) with a tool or with a script
Create a Virtual Machine Windows 7 or better.
In the VM make sure you have a second network card that's set to a private network with your Host so you can connect to your Host MySQL you will need a User in your MySQL Server setup that allows connections from your remote network
in this VM install SQL Server, and SQL Server Management Studio & Navicat from that you can then restore the .bak file, once you have it restored. you will need another external tool that allows you to export as another format for this i use Navicat export is as another format. you can then connect to your MySQL Server and import that exported file.
I have a .mdb file on my computer that I would like to convert into a MySQL Schema and I have found that there is a migration tool within Workbench. However it doesn't seem to allow you to connect to a .mdb instead it looks for a server. How should I either link to my file or host my file easily as I have not done this before.
MySQL Workbench doesn't currently support migrations from MS Access. But you can still use the old MySQL Migration Toolkit which does support MS Access migrations.
